ITS EDUCATION ASIA ARTICLE


Earth as Safe Operating Space

By Danny Harrington, MD ITS Education Asia


An independently funded report by the International Science Council has laid out a road map for how funding can and should be allocated into the five areas currently posing the greatest risk to human life.

Unleashing Science: Delivering Missions for Sustainability advocates for science to be better funded and organized to truly deliver inter-disciplinary, systems-focused solutions which are collaborative, inclusive and accessible.

They demand immediate changes for science aimed at:

  • Food: eating adequate, healthy diets without consuming nature’s bounty;
  • Water: replenishing nature’s reservoirs to provide enough clean water for all;
  • Health and Wellbeing: being whole and well in body, mind and nature;
  • Urban areas: thriving in places while stewarding the natural environment; and
  • Climate and energy: shifting to clean energy while restoring a safe climate.
